The staff was nice but the rooms are really old and outdated. The pool didn't look very clean. Spend 10-20 bucks more a night and stay nearby.

When we arrived, they had decided one of my reservations was a duplicate, so they only had one room. The room did not have a functioning toilet. Although they refunded most of my money, they kept close to $97. I would not recommend this hotel. The price was very close to the same as the very nice hotel where we ended up staying.

So nasty. We had to switch rooms when we first got there bc of food crumbs in the bed. Our second room seemed fine, but when we got back for the night we saw about five roaches in the span of a minute. We decided to just drive back home. We asked for a refund even if it was a partial one, but because we signed an agreement when we got there we weren't able to get one. Don't go!!!! So bad.

The pool was green, the area unsafe, horrible noise, AC unit was super loud and off when you get there so it was extremely hot for first few hours, toilet moved when you sat on it, bed sheets were itchy, floor turned your feet black, tub had mold and just looked unclean.

The pool water is green, so the pool's not safe to swim in during my visit. The uh bathtub, it was filthy. So I did not use the tower shower, and there were bugs in the room as well as I could see. Quite a bit of daylight under the room door so I had to stuffed towels under the door to ensure my privacy

I liked the location and since it was my first time to Nashville, I wanted to stay here because some of the legendary musicians had stayed there. The manager was really nice. I did not like the room, I was expecting it to be a very updated and clean room.

Set your expectations tight for the Drake
If you know what you’re getting yourself into and set the expectations right, the Drake is a great alternative to the exorbitant hotel room rates in downtown Nashville. The staff is helpful and the rooms are very serviceable.
